thanks sleepydawg but that's no good. i tried that. the issue is that i need some way of being able to edit the entries in the folder which you can do freely when you add things to a custom folder but the type of folder the custom one is seems to JUST be a fly-out. i'm stuck.
i wanted to have a folder (on ObjectDock) filled with custom entries but i didn't want it to be a fly-out. it seems the only custom folder i can have is a fly-out but i find fly-outs to be unreliable in terms of speed;sometimes they're really slow & ,although they look nice,i'd rather have a simple list-view that shows quickly. am i missing something? is there a way to do this? i need custom entries because i have to specify a particular program to open certain files so i can't j

i was really talking about normal list-view folders.
does anyone know why one cannot navigate folders in OD by using the scroll wheel? i find it very annoying to have to click on the arrows top or bottom.
ok then. i know what to try now. thanks very much for your help.
thanks guys. what you say makes good sense Cavan1. still a bit unclear as to resolution...we didn't seem to reach a consensus. am i right to think i should begin again by designing a 256 x 256 icon at 300DPI?
aaaaaaaah.that's a good point chaps. i didn't think about the resolution! it was at 72 (screen res.) does it apply just the same as it does for print? if so...i never knew that. i thought you couldn't improve upon screen resolution which is why i was only thinking about the size. i'm intending making a whole suite for my needs,Bichur. however i was just testing 1 icon before continuing & that's when i noticed how shite it was looking! performance wise i have
i did say...512 pixels (512 x 512).
thanks but i am making them in png. my original image looks perfect but that doesn't seem to translate onto ObjectDock.
hello. i'd like to understand just how the settings for icon size & magnified size actually works because i'm designing my own icons for the dock only they appear to display incorrectly. i thought i would design at a larger size than i would really need so as to improve quality. could someone explain how the OD sizing works? i have the normal size set at 48 pixels which seems about right for me but upon zooming the icon doesn't seem to benefit from the high resolution i used to d
